Copperopolis Road Race
Milton, CA, March 26, 2005
Larkin snatches win in 'California's own Paris Roubaix'
Tim Larkin (Kodak EasyShare Gallery/Sierra Nevada) today took what could be considered one of his biggest wins when he outlasted CSC's new recruit David Zabriskie to take out the Copperopolis road race. The tough 105 mile race, with challenging climbs and road surfaces, is considered California's own version of Paris Roubaix. Kodak Gallery/Sierra Nevada's Ben Jacques-Maynes featured in an early break along with his brother Andy (Webcor Builders) and Matt Dubberly (McGuire-Langdale).
After Jacques-Maynes punctured, Larkin bridged up to Dubberly and Andy Jacques-Maynes along with Zabriskie, Wohlberg, and two other Webcor riders. The group worked together until the last climb, when Larkin pushed the pace and dropped all except for Zabriskie and Wohlberg.
Zabriskie launched the sprint up the small rise to the finish, but Larkin came around in the last 100 metres to take the win. Larkin said after the race, "Copperopolis is a local race, but it's always tough no matter who's there. And to beat a ProTour rider like Zabriskie and a rider with Eric's ability is definitely a big confidence boost for myself and the team before the Redlands Classic next week."
